MAGNA TERRA REPORTS EXPANSION OF PROPERTY AND EXTENSION OF AIRBORNE GEOPHYSICAL SURVEY AT THE PROSPECT OR'S DREAM EPITHERMAL GOLD PROJECT, NEW BRUNSWICK

Magna Terra Minerals Inc. has expanded the property size of the prospect Or's Dream project, located proximal to the prolific Bathurst mining camp (BMC) of northern New Brunswick. The project now comprises 23,887 hectares located along a 30-plus-or-minus-kilometre extent of the prospective Moose Lake fault zone. The project is centred on a new gold discovery from 2025 where low-sulphidation epithermal gold-bearing quartz veins were identified that are hosted within rhyolite, andesite and granites over a minimum 7.2-kilometre strike length of the Donner trend (see news release dated Jan. 22, 2026).

The project area has been expanded via staking of seven mineral claims totaling 5,087 hectares along or near the strike projection of the Moose Lake fault. Importantly, these claims were added without any underlying option payments or royalties to vendors. The ongoing airborne geophysical survey has been expanded from 1,221 line kilometres to 1,302 line kilometres and will be further extended to cover the newly staked contiguous claims.

Magna Terra would like to acknowledge and thank the province of New Brunswick for partial financial assistance granted for work on the prospect Or's Dream project under the New Brunswick Junior Mining Assistance Program (NBJMAP).

"As we build the data layers through our systematic exploration approach at the prospect Or's Dream project, we have taken the opportunity to expand the project footprint by staking available ground along or near the Moose Lake fault, further illustrating our strategy of growing our high-potential mineral projects through cost-effective acquisition and disciplined exploration. The information generated from our ongoing airborne magnetic and electromagnetic survey which is nearing completion, along with our ongoing prospecting work and planned soil geochemical surveys will provide the company with a strong data set to help generate priority exploration targets within this enlarged land package. Our initial prospecting program which generated assays with grades of up to 1.97 g/t gold from rock grab samples, has also generated additional zones of epithermal quartz veins, leading to the expansion of the property package south and east of the Blitzen prospect. Pathfinder elements, including Ag, As, Sb, Te and Hg from quartz vein samples, are guiding our efforts in identifying where each target area sits within the classic low-sulphidation epithermal model, and providing vectors towards potential higher-grade parts of the system."

Property geology

The prospect Or's Dream property is centred along a 30-kilometre section of the Moose Lake-Tomogonops-Tozer fault system, a regional-scale fault zone that separates middle to late Ordovician volcanic and sedimentary rocks of the Sheephouse Brook Group and Cambrian to Lower Ordovician Miramichi Group to the south from Middle to Late Ordovician Tetagouche and California Lake groups to the north. The Tetagouche and California Lake groups are host to the volcanogenic massive sulphide deposits of the Bathurst camp.

The area has been subject to episodic intrusive and deformation and faulting from the Late Ordovician to the Devonian. The less explored Sheephouse Brook and Miramichi groups are intruded by Late Ordovician Clearwater Lake and Stony Brook felsic porphyritic intrusives. Rocks on both sides of the fault are intruded by Late Silurian to Early Devonian North Pole and South Branch Northwest Miramichi granites, particularly on the western side of the property.

Several northwest-southeast-striking splay faults off the main MLFZ include the Kagoot Brook, Hubbards Pond, Clearwater Stream, Sheephouse Brook, Mahals Brook, Mountain Brook and the Pringle Brook faults.

Epithermal gold model

Although the company is in its early stages of work at prospect Or's Dream, the data and initial geological observations (vein textures, host rocks, et cetera) along with indicator element signature of the vein samples (Au (gold), Ag (silver), Sb (antimony), As (arsenic) with variable amounts of Hg (mercury) and Te (tellurium), and very low concentrations of Cu (copper), Pb (lead) and Zn (zinc)) suggest that the prospects sampled to date are at a relatively high level in the typical low-sulphidation epithermal model of Buchanan (1981) in each of the areas. Generally higher-grade precious metals are found deeper within these systems and generally associated with quartz adularia veins. Continuing work will continue to gather the geological and geochemical data required to better understand vectoring to higher-grade portions of the epithermal systems exposed on the property.

Qualified person and technical notes

This news release has been reviewed and approved by David A. Copeland, PGeo, vice-president, exploration, and qualified person under National Instrument 43-101 -- Standard for Disclosure for Mineral Projects.

All rock samples collected were submitted to ALS Canada Ltd. in Moncton, N.B., for processing and then transported to their facility in North Vancouver, B.C., for gold (method AU-AA23) and multielement geochemistry, including elements Cu, Pb, Zn, Co, Ag, As, Sb (method ME-ICP61), Hg (method Hg-MS42), Te and other elements (method ME-MS61L).

All quoted historic drill core and rock samples results were compiled from historic assessment and government reports obtained from the government of New Brunswick. The qualified person has not completed sufficient work to validate these historic results.
